By TKe Associated Press
PARIS, — </P)— Riot troops and
police broke up a teen-age dem
onstration against Britain and the
United States yesterday as British
Prime Minister’ Macmillan held in
conclusive talks here over Tuni
sian arms.
Shouting “Algeria is French”
and “Macmillan to the gallows,”
about 300 young men, many in
leather jackets, attonjpted to march
on the U. S. Embassy near the
Palace de la Concorde.
The authorities had been warned
to expect possible riots by signs

^Dollar Per Aggie’
splashed on walls overnig;ht by two
rightist parties declaring, “The
British and Americans have given
arms to the Algerian rebels via
Tunisia.”
Heavy rings of police and troops
had been thrown about the British
and U. S. embassies shortly after
Macmillan flew in from London to
begin his talks with French offi
cials.
Almost as soon as the youths be
gan converging, the police moved
in with their clubs. About 100 of
the demonstrator's were bundled
into police vans. The remainder
were herded into the center of the
Place de la Concorde and police
hurled stench bombs, into their
midst.

Nuclear Reactor
On Show Wed.
The only non-military operated
nuclear reactor will he on display
in the fifth wing of the mechanical
engineering shops tomorrow after
noon from 1 until 6:30.
The reactor was set up nt A&M
by the Atomic Energy Commission
Sept. 1 for research and training.
It produces neutrons, gamma rays,
and heat by splitting atoms of
uranium or plutonium, and differs
from an atomic bomb only in that
the reactions are carefully con
trolled.
Total energy released by the re
actor, if uncontrolled, would be al
most uneomprehensible, yet experi
ments on the campus for the next
hundred years will generate less
heat than an average home uses in
one night.
At the open house tomorrow,
dimes will be made radioactive.
Children visiting the reactor
must be accompanied by their par
ents.
The land area of Canada is 3,-
577,000 square miles.

The Student Senate-sponsored
Campus Chest is slated to start
Dec. 5 with “a dollar an Ag” as
its goal.
The $7,000 dollars to be raised
would represent the only fund
drive of this year and would be
used for all worthwhile organiza
tions and individuals heretofore
solicited separately.
Of the total sum collected, 1.0
K:r cent will be allocated to World
University Service.
WUS is an international vohm-
tary agency which operates a pro
gram of material assistance and
international education to aid the
world university community. It
has an advisory relationship with
the United Nations Economic and
Social Council and also works
closely with other UN agencies.
It was created in 1937 to meet
student needs resulting from Jap-
anese-Chinese War and eventually
spread to other Asian countries as
well as those in Europe.
Under WUS, s t u d e n t s and
professors at foreign universities
receive aid to support such pro
jects as student health and stu
dent housing. It also aids student
refugees and supplies those stu
dents in need with food and cloth-
Warned by the electric atmos
phere, Macmillan tried to smooth
the way for NATO’ unity by de
claring upon his arrival: “We are
in the same boat—don’t let us or
anyone else rock it.”
But this was small relief to the
feelings of the French. They be
lieve Macmillan and President Ei
senhower, who will attend a NATO
summit conference here in mid-
December, already had rocked the
boat by delivering 900 small arms
to the troops of Tunisian President
Habib Bourguiba.
The British and American view
is that the step was necessary to
forestall any Tunisian-Soviet arms
deal, and that Bourguiba prom
ised the weapons would be used
only for Tunisian security.
Macmillan returned to the Brit
ish Embassy through the cordons
of riot forces after his first round
of talks with Premier Felix Gail-
lard.
A spokesman for the French del
egation said the discussions thus
far had been frank but that no
common decision had been reach

the rate only one cent, therefore
causing no heavier burden on tax
payers, ^rown said.
The $500,000 in bonds would be
used for paving one-third of the
streets and for paving all inter
sections. Property owners would
be responsible for paving the third
of the street on their side .'ind for
curbs and gutters. This would re
present an approximate cost of
$5.50 per linage foot, or about $4
per linage foot without curbs and
gutters, according to Brown.
